First off: nice poem, wjames! I like the metaphor comparing the tackle box to your grandfather's skin--a personal touch that makes the poem more original. In stanza 1, dads needs an apostrophe, stanza 2, grandfathers also needs an apostrophe. I personally think this poem is very nice, and a great way to celebrate your grandfather and all he's accomplished.
Free verse poetry and jazz are like brother and sister.
